Artistry
editMaluma possesses a tenor vocal range.[35][36][37][38][39] Maluma defines his music as "urban pop".[40][41] A Billboard editor wrote, "Maluma's brand of reggaetón syncs nicely with his image, managing to be both romantic and raw. His sound represents an evolution of the genre."[4] In a 2016 interview, he stated: "I grew up with this genre [reggaeton] that literally became life. It is one of the genres that I sing... I am an urban performer, I sing reggaeton. If you listen to my last album [Pretty Boy, Dirty Boy] there are ballads, mambo, merengue and reggaeton and underground stuff. I like to show the versatility that I have to perform."[42]
He has cited Héctor Lavoe, Justin Timberlake and Michael Jackson as his main musical influences.[4][43] While talking about them, Maluma said: "Justin Timberlake has been a great reference for modern music. But as for music as a sauce, Héctor Lavoe was always the number one artist I admired. I know all his songs, I listen to them every day and there is not one that bores me. He is my great musical inspiration."[44] He considers the folkloric elements Shakira incorporated into her music an important influence on his career.[45] He has also stated that Ricky Martin "is one of the artists I wanted to be growing up, He's my idol in the industry".[46]

A petition was posted on Change.org demanding the removal of the song from digital platforms.[53] Despite this controversy, the popularity of "Cuatro Babys" earned it a 12× Latin Platinum certification by the RIAA.[54]
At the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Maluma left a live TV interview broadcast on Israeli public television after the reporter suggested he could be accused of whitewashing Qatari human rights abuses.[55]
